Description

本発明はTNF−α阻害剤に関する。   The present invention relates to a TNF-α inhibitor.

TNF−α(Tumor Necrosis Factor-α:腫瘍壊死因子)は、炎症を通した生体防御・免疫機構に広く関わるサイトカインとして認識されている(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。そして、TNF−αの過剰な産生が組織障害やさまざまな病気(例えば、関節リウマチ、全身性エリテマトーデス(SLE)、悪液質、急性感染症、アレルギー、発熱、貧血、糖尿病など。)を引き起こす原因となることが知られている(例えば、非特許文献1参照。)。また、TNF−αが自己免疫性疾患である慢性関節リウマチおよびクローン病の発症に重要な役割を果たしていることも知られている(例えば、非特許文献2参照。)。   TNF-α (Tumor Necrosis Factor-α: tumor necrosis factor) is recognized as a cytokine widely involved in biological defense / immune mechanisms through inflammation (see, for example, Patent Document 1). And excessive production of TNF-α causes tissue damage and various diseases (for example, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), cachexia, acute infection, allergy, fever, anemia, diabetes, etc.). (For example, see Non-Patent Document 1). It is also known that TNF-α plays an important role in the development of rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease, which are autoimmune diseases (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 2).

このようなことから、TNF−α阻害剤は、上記した疾患の治療に有効であると期待され、様々な化合物(例えば、6−フェニルテトラヒドロ−1,3−オキサジン−2−オン誘導体、側鎖に硫黄原子を有するウレア誘導体、ベンゾヘテロ環化合物、1,3−チアゾール化合物、メタロプロテアーゼ阻害剤、シクロスポリンAなど。)についてのTNF−α阻害活性が研究されている(例えば、非特許文献1および2ならびに特許文献1〜7参照。)。
なお、TNF−α阻害剤は、疼痛に対しても優れた予防・治療効果を発揮し、また、破骨細胞の活性化を抑制し、破骨細胞の形成を阻害することも知られている(例えば、特許文献6参照。)。また、TNF−α阻害剤は、緑内障の治療にも使用できることが知られている(例えば、特許文献7参照。)。
For these reasons, TNF-α inhibitors are expected to be effective for the treatment of the above-mentioned diseases, and various compounds (for example, 6-phenyltetrahydro-1,3-oxazin-2-one derivatives, side chains) TNF-α inhibitory activity on urea derivatives having a sulfur atom, benzoheterocyclic compounds, 1,3-thiazole compounds, metalloprotease inhibitors, cyclosporin A, etc.) has been studied (for example, Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). And Patent Documents 1 to 7).
TNF-α inhibitors are also known to exert an excellent preventive / therapeutic effect on pain, suppress osteoclast activation, and inhibit osteoclast formation. (For example, refer to Patent Document 6). Moreover, it is known that a TNF- (alpha) inhibitor can be used also for the treatment of glaucoma (for example, refer patent document 7).

白鶴霊芝(Rhinacanthus nasuta(L.)Kurz)は、インド南部デカン高原の原産とされるリナカンサス属きつねのまご科に属する常緑小低木であり、その全草(リナカンツス草)は駆虫、消炎、皮膚真菌に対する抗菌作用のあることが知られ(例えば、非特許文献3参照。)、主に中国、台湾等において、また最近では日本国においても漢方薬として用いられている。その他、本出願人による以前の出願で、白鶴霊芝に活性酸素消去能があること(特許文献8参照。)、排泄促進作用があること(特許文献9参照。)、抗アレルギー作用があること(特許文献10参照。)および抗悪性腫瘍作用があること(特許文献11参照。)が開示されている。しかしながら、この白鶴霊芝乃至白鶴霊芝の水および/または有機溶媒抽出物にTNF−α阻害作用があることは知られていない。   Rhinacanthus nasuta (L.) Kurz is an evergreen small shrub belonging to the genus Linakansus fox family that originated in the Deccan Plateau in southern India. It is known to have an antibacterial action against skin fungi (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 3), and is mainly used as a Chinese medicine in China, Taiwan, etc., and recently in Japan. In addition, in the previous application by the present applicant, Hakutsuru Ganoderma has active oxygen scavenging ability (see Patent Document 8), excretion promoting action (see Patent Document 9), and antiallergic action. (See Patent Document 10) and the fact that it has an anti-malignant tumor action (see Patent Document 11). However, it is not known that the water and / or organic solvent extract of this white crane reishi or white crane reishi has a TNF-α inhibitory action.
